(N,N-Diethyl-nicotinamide-κN)bis-[4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(thien-2-yl)butane-1,3-dionato-κO,O']copper(II).

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Cu(C(8)H(4)F(3)O(2)S)(2)(C(10)H(14)N(2)O)], the Cu(II) atom exists in a distorted CuNO(4) square-pyramidal geometry; the metal atom lies above a square plane defined by four O atoms of the two chelating anionic ligands, displaced in the direction of the axial occupant, the pyridine N atom, by 0.179 (1) Å. Weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O and C-H⋯F hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure. One thienyl ring is disordered over two orientations in an occupancy ratio of 0.69 (1):0.31.
